Casual Gaming Revolution “fad” to come to an End? Posted by: dvbrevolution in 1. Wii News & Articles When the Wii was released back in 2006, Casual Gaming took off like never before in the console space.

Nintendo fanboys have been crying collective tears of indifference ever since the Wii became the top selling console of this generation.

4 Stars Wii Play Game With Remote
The games are great fun, and keep you moving. You feel like you really are at a bowling alley, or on the tennis courts. The remote helped us be able to play the games as a group.

3 Stars Wii Play Review
this wii game is not a necessity, but it is a great way to get a new game and a remote at the same time, the games are very elementary.

5 Stars Good Value for an Extra Wii Remote + Game
This is a good purchase for anyone looking to get another Wii Remote for their Nintendo Wii console.

The Wii Play game itself doesn’t offer much, but there are some mini games in there that might be somewhat interesting and can provide some fun for short periods of time especially with friends over.

Packaged with the Wii Remote makes this a worthwhile game. Don’t buy this for the game itself.

4 Stars Wii Play
It’s not as much fun as other games, but I’m glad I purchased it, plus it came with a free remote.
